Would love to see what Albee or Kai Lenny would've done on that canvas.

To be honest, as long as I got over the initial sensory overload of first being whipped into that thing I could have done a lot more with it.

This drone footage of one of the long rides at Ulu is pretty good.
An 80 second ride.

Has anyone got any footage of the other two tow-in waves with the barrels?

Just imagine the same size wave, but barreling top to bottom. I think its the brazzo on both. Now that was a gutsy performance!

Oh, and great find foamy.

I remember it as he probably got 50m or so before it closed. Loofy would have made it out though I'm sure.

He made the second barrel, then kicked out. Loofy will be shaking his head slowly at that willfull spinelessness.

Trick is mate to treat big waves like small waves. Give em too much respect and you got no chance.

Thank god, the swell has dropped to a reasonable size.

A mate was watching just on dark yesterday when a body boarder got worked by some sets outside Temples at Ulus. They lost sight of him in the foam and failing light.

His body board was found in the cave later that night. So he was missing, presumed drowned.

But he turns up at Bingin at 11pm!

I still don't buy the "official" narrative about 9/11. Oh sure, it happened, fcuk yeah. But who and why and how I'm, not convinced it was what we've been told.

It started off with a two wave hold down.

My mate said he was close to shore not long after, and could have got in and walked up the Uluwatu Villas stairs.

Without a board there's very little chance of getting in at the cave in those conditions. Even with a board a lot don't make it.

He was Dutch, and very inexperienced I'm told.
